I know a way to kill the ripple from your touch And what if I can only settle for much? It stays with you You're like a sky so drizzly That I want 'Till I take it out on you Show me how to keep you in You be good to me And I, I'll be good to you Don't let go of your light It's your best friend in the world I hope you'll learn what Heaven knows Who cares if I go? I know a way to tell the middle from the start And what if telling makes the brittle fall apart? In time although my hair turns grey and grizzly Stay with me So we cursed a lot And I'm ashamed of walking out Oh it's just too bad, we got stuck in the past We're hiding there in silence now It sounds familiar You be good to me And I, I'll be good to you I'm off to work But I don't see you turn Cross the river on your own On the other side You wanna go far away On the other side The riverbed Follow us there You be good to me And I, I'll be good to you Don't let go of your light It's your best friend in the world I hope you'll learn what Heaven knows Who cares if I go? So we cursed a lot And I'm ashamed of walking out And my thoughts are wrought with a shortsighted secret And missing you Why do you cry, Paddy? Long as I've been alive Old as I am I've still no plan I'm off to work But I don't see you turn My life was OK I was counting my steps
